Play is the Way

During Term 2, students will be discussing a new key concept - Be brave – participate to progress.

We will explore:

• Some fears that people experience which prevent them from getting the most out of school.
• Why it is sometimes scary to try something new in front of people.
• The many ways people behave to hide their fears.
• Making mistakes and failing may make us feel bad. It takes courage to overcome these feelings and to keep trying.

Students were introduced to a new game Snake.  This game requires students to work together in pairs to wind their way through a slalom course of hula hoops.  It takes considerable social and emotional skills to work cohesively as a unit to become a ‘snake’ that eventually glides its way through the course with speed and control.
